This, executed in ca. 1840 (according to sitter's dress and hairstyle) watercolor portrait is a superior quality work of one of the few best Viennese miniaturists of 1st half of 19th century, Emanuel Thomas Peter.

The sitter, ca. 20-year-old young lady is the still unmarried Countess Christiane Nostitz-Rieneck (1820-1877; see our images nr.9-11). In 1848 she married Count Egbert Belcredi (1816-1894); the marriage was childlos.

Emanuel Thomas Peter (1799 Jaegerndorf - 1873 Vienna) was a very well-known Austrian portrait miniaturist of the 19th century. From 1818 he studied at the Vienna Academy, at first architecture and then miniature painting under the famous Moritz Michael Daffinger. He copied a lot of Daffinger's miniatures with such artistic skill, that it is often impossible to distinguish between copies and originals. After a stay in Silezia Peter returned to Vienna in 1830 and became there one of the leading miniaturists. His best works were created between 1830 and 1850s.

In September of 2006 we have acquired another version of the same portrait by Peter (see our web #42550 ).
